FLASHBACK: That Time Omarosa Was Fired from the Clinton White House

FLASHBACK: That Time Omarosa Was Fired from the Clinton White House

Omarosa Manigault Newman is no stranger to failing in The White House. She became well known by television viewers of NBC’s hit show “The Apprentice” with Donald Trump.

Now, after being let go for personal issues, she’s using that closeness to President Trump to make millions by calling her former boss a racist and a liar. She made the situation worse by illegally recording herself insecure parts of the White House. (RELATED: Omarosa Could be in Legal Trouble Over Secret White House Recordings).

But this isn’t Omarosa’s first series of White House problems. She worked in the Clinton Administration under Vice President Al Gore. As Al Gore’s former office administrator Mary Margaret Overbey said at the time, Omarosa “was the worst hire (the Office of the Vice President) ever made.”

People magazine reported in 2004, she was “banished from four jobs in two years with the Clinton administration.” The White House personnel office transferred her to the Commerce Department briefly. At her last short-lived administration role, Cheryl Shavers, the former Under Secretary for Technology at the Clinton Commerce Department, opined, “She was asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive. One woman wanted to slug her.” Omarosa only lasted in that final role for several weeks.

Both Clinton and Gore had a responsibility to warn President Trump about Omarosa.

“FLASHBACK: That Time Omarosa Was Fired from the Clinton White House”

Her hiring by the Trump administration was a major fail.

Whoever was responsible - even if it was the man himself - failed to recognize all the flashing red lights.

It is VERY hard to fire a federal employee. To fire a female woman of color is virtually impossible. The White House staff may be different but you can bet this female person of color will be challenging GEN Kelly with wrongful dismissal.

This is the way it will likely proceed.

Was the female person of color counseled? If yes when.
Was a counselling statement provided to the employee?
Was the employee allowed the opportunity to challenge the firing?
Etc., Etc., Etc,. Litigation will go on through Trumps second term.

“Her hiring by the Trump administration was a major fail.”

Neither Clinton or Gore told President Trump about Omarosa, and I bet that Omarosa’s Resume omitted the fact that she worked for the Clinton White House.

This is all on Clinton and Gore.

Once upon a time I would have made a snarky comment about that, but these days one can't assume anything. :-)

Agree somewhat.

However I am sure there were many in the Trump Administration that should have warned him about her history. I can only think that they figured he had some sort of trust relationship with that liar because of her acting on his TV show.

Saw a bit of Jake Tapper’s 4 pm show yesterday and he had the biggest smile on his face interviewing people about this story.. He’s in hog heaven! Probably everyone else on CNN is also but he happened to be the only one I saw.

Additionally, last evening on one of the shows (forget which one) others were saying WH staff are never asked to sign Non Disclosure Agreements. I can’t believe that’s true.

Why? If Trump didn't know her after several rounds of The Apprentice then he has nobody to blame but himself.

Yes, and no one in the media at the time Bill Clinton occupied the White House ever dared to call Bill Clinton a rapist.
